Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of carbon fiber off loading orthoses to reduce plantar pressure while providing an augmented plantarflexor power to improve walking and function. Results of this study could lead to increased use of carbon fiber off loading orthoses for patients with diabetes, peripheral neuropathy, and foot wounds as a way augmenting wound healing and preventing future recurrences of wounds.

Primary Outcome

Plantar pressure during walking while the participant wears the brace fabricated based on the finite element (FE) model compared to 1) the brace fabricated based on current clinical standards and 2) barefoot.
